Swell Summary

The current west-northwest swell will continue its gradual decline through tonight. The next significant northwest swell is due late Saturday into early next week, with peak surf heights nearing and potentially reaching warning levels along north and west facing shores Saturday night and Sunday. Will likely need a High Surf Advisory or Warning issued sometime Saturday. Another similarly- sized northwest swell is expected to build in Tuesday night and linger through Wednesday. Small surf is expected along east facing shores over the next week as trade winds remain light. Surf along south facing shores should see a small boost through Saturday as a small south swell fills in.
